Do not
use a lamp module ... it's not what they were designed to do and I wouldn't
want
to risk the lamp module failing given the loading of the
blanket.
Stick
with an appliance module if you need to automate an electric blanket ...

Automating electric blanket ( yes its that time of year
)
Hi
all
I'm thinking
of
automating my electric blanket but have some doubts as to the best
method. Could I use a LM and use the dimming function to control the
amount of heat dissipated by the electric blanket or would I be limited to
using an AM. My electric blanket has a 0 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 0 "switch" on
the
cord to control the level of heating so in theory the "element" can handle
not
being on full power.
Cheers
Pedro de
Oliveira
